Abstract

The main aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between Dark Tetrad traits (Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy and sadism) and ability emotional intelligence dimensions – self-emotion appraisal, others’ emotion appraisal, use of emotion and regulation of emotion. The Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale, Short Dark Triad and Assessment of Sadistic Personality were applied to a sample of 322 participants from the general population (63% women) of Croatia. Results showed that both psychopathy and sadism had negative relations with emotional intelligence. Sadism showed significant effects on self-emotion appraisal, others’ emotion appraisal, and use of emotion dimensions, while psychopathy showed significant effect on regulation of emotion. Machiavellianism negatively correlated to a weaker degree with self-emotion appraisal and others’ emotion appraisal, but it showed no significant effects on emotional intelligence dimensions in regression analysis. Narcissism showed positive effects on EI as a whole, use of emotion and self-emotion appraisal. The results highlighted the importance of the dark traits in the explanation of emotional intelligence and showed that the dark traits are differently associated with emotional intelligence dimensions.

黑暗四分体对情绪智力的影响

本研究的主要目的是调查黑暗四重奏特质（马基雅维利主义、自恋、精神病和虐待狂）与能力情商维度——自我情绪评价、他人情绪评价、情绪使用和情绪调节——之间的关系。Wong和Law情绪智力量表、短期黑暗三合会和虐待狂人格评估应用于克罗地亚普通人群中的322名参与者（63%为女性）。结果表明，精神变态和虐待狂均与情绪智力呈负相关。悲伤症对自我情绪评价、他人情绪评价和情绪维度使用有显著影响，而精神病对情绪调节有显著影响。马基雅维利主义与自我情绪评价和他人情绪评价的负相关程度较弱，但在回归分析中对情商维度没有显著影响。自恋对整体情绪智力、情绪使用和自我情绪评价有积极影响。研究结果强调了黑暗特质在情商解释中的重要性，并表明黑暗特质与情商维度的关联不同。
